Pressure on Sarkisian, Not Just Manning | Texas Longhorns Football News
Description
Texas Longhorns’ quest for a national title is heating up, with Arch Manning’s star power and Heisman hype dominating the conversation—but the real pressure may be on head coach Steve Sarkisian. Analysts argue Sarkisian’s coaching identity is being overshadowed by Manning’s development, and with Texas’ most talented roster yet, the burden of playoff success falls squarely on his shoulders. Manning’s turnaround this season has rekindled championship dreams, but history shows Sarkisian’s record against elite teams like Georgia and Ohio State could be the ultimate litmus test. The 2026 title race may hinge on who shoulders the weight: the QB or the coach.
